Editorial Review for Bender Bar and Grill – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Although they offer a full menu, make no mistake--this is a bar, first and foremost. Basic but tasteful décor doesn't compete for attention with the large, prominent full-service counter. Old school South Austin bubbas, area office workers and other workday refugees start to fill up the bar starting mid-week. The full menu offers finger-licking specialties such as sliders, sweet onion rings, stuffed jalapenos, burgers, catfish sandwiches and grilled chicken salads.
